Overview
Spot bitcoin at the category's lowest fee — Grayscale's low-cost answer to its own expensive flagship, seeded from GBTC's coins under the boldest ticker in the market.

Fund Details
Investment Thesis
Grayscale watched GBTC bleed assets over its 1.5% fee and answered with this: the same bitcoin, spun into a mini trust at 0.15% — cheaper than every major rival — wearing the ticker 'BTC' itself. For buy-and-hold bitcoin exposure, fee is nearly the whole differentiation game, and this fund wins it. The asset's -30% year is the same story across every spot fund; the wrapper choice is about cost.
Who It's For
Long-term bitcoin holders who want the cheapest possible wrapper and the simplest ticker. Traders needing deep options liquidity still go to IBIT; savers come here.
